whether or not the employees of the South~st l orida

appear that they would: -oM probably be tate Employees

Memo to: TOM MARKS

From: MYRON GIBBONS

Please check to see if the Southwest Florida Water Management
District must comply with the Wage & Hour Laws as far as its
employees are concerned, whether the minimum wage is applicable,
and whether or not, on overtime, it is required to pay more than
straight time pay -- in other words, does it have to pay time and
a half for overtime.

The Southwest Florida Water Management District is a public
corporation and has been determined by the Attorney General to
be a State Agency.
